NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center/Conceptual Image Laboratory For 540 million years, the ebb and flow in the strength of Earth's magnetic field has correlated with fluctuations in atmospheric oxygen, according to a newly released analysis by NASA scientists.

Low-wage support workers become a new gateway for cyberattacks

techspot.com Skye Jacobs 2025-09-08 22:53:00

Editor's take: As businesses increasingly rely on outsourced tech support to cut costs, the risks associated with these operations are coming into sharper focus. The threat is no longer just about technical vulnerabilities; it's about the people behind the screens, and the growing pressure they face from both economic hardship and sophisticated cybercriminals. Hackers are increasingly turning the very systems designed to help customers – outsourced tech support and call centers – into powerful

A '70s performance artist who became a hero to 'garbage men'

The New York City Sanitation Department in the late 1970s was not an obvious place to find a warm welcome for feminist conceptual art. But the newly appointed sanitation commissioner, Norman Steisel, had arrived as an outlier in the world of municipal waste. Before he began his career in city government, first working in budget offices, he had been a graduate student in chemical engineering and applied mathematics at Yale, where he fell in with a crowd of M.F.A. students.

MIT brain scans suggest that using GenAI tools reduces cognitive activity

Why it matters: As the use of generative AI becomes increasingly common in education, law, politics, media, and other fields, many worry that reliance on the technology may reduce cognitive independence.
